47: Take action!

“These two Bounty Hunters, neither of them are the weakest type of Entering Martial Realm Ninth Level, so they won’t be easy to deal with… However, with the Swamp Array, it’s not impossible to kill them.”

“The problem is…”

“Should I defeat them one by one, or attack both of them at the same time?”

Xiao Shi currently had two plans.

One plan was to first attack the Bounty Hunter hiding in the dark, eliminate one, and then deal with the second, defeating them one by one.

The other plan was to attack both Bounty Hunters simultaneously.

The advantage of the first plan was less pressure, as these two Bounty Hunters were not the weakest type of Entering Martial Realm Ninth Level, and in terms of their inherent strength, they were stronger than Xiao Shi.

Defeating them one by one would significantly reduce pressure and risk.

However, the drawback was that when dealing with one person, it might alert the other, as the distance between them was not far. If the other person saw the situation was unfavorable and directly fled, it would be a losing proposition.

Secondly.

Regarding the Swamp Array, it would also have to be used twice, which would completely exhaust its remaining uses.

Compared to the first plan, the second plan, apart from being riskier, basically had no other drawbacks.

After Xiao Shi carefully weighed the options in his mind.

He made a decision… Nighttime.

Lightning flashed and thunder rumbled, and the rain poured down.

A dull thunder echoed between heaven and earth, like the roar of a deity.

It was a stormy night.

In this rainy night.

A figure swiftly moved through the rain, silently appearing outside a residential house.

Through the sensation of the Blood Seal.

Xiao Shi could see the Bounty Hunter inside the house, currently sitting cross-legged on the bed, seemingly cultivating.

A cold glint flashed in his eyes.

The compressed vital energy within his body was released and erupted, enveloping his entire body.

A long saber also appeared in his hand.

Boom!

His figure flashed forward, smashing through the door, and Xiao Shi instantly charged into the room.

The long saber, with a whistle, created a tearing boom in the air, directly slashing towards the Bounty Hunter sitting cross-legged on the bed.

However, the moment the long saber struck.

The Bounty Hunter, Luo Fangyi, who was sitting cross-legged on the bed, suddenly opened his eyes.

There was no panic in his eyes.

He seemed to have expected it.

Although he had waited many days without the other party making a move, his vigilance had not diminished in the slightest.

He was always on guard.

“Finally, you’re willing to make a move…”

A hint of joy flashed in Luo Fangyi’s eyes.

He wasn’t afraid of a sneak attack.

He was only afraid that the other party would keep hiding and not make a move.

Now, he had finally waited.

Clang!

The long saber struck a silver and white shield.

It was blocked by this shield.

Although Xiao Shi’s strike was powerful and heavy, even with the shield blocking, Luo Fangyi was still sent flying backwards by the strike, crashing into the wall behind him. However, it was not able to kill him in one blow, unlike when Xiao Shi had killed the previous two Bounty Hunters.

And when Xiao Shi saw that this strike failed to kill the opponent, he surprisingly did not continue to attack, but turned and left.

“Hmm?”

This immediately made Luo Fangyi frown.

He hadn’t expected this person to be so decisive.

After one strike, he immediately withdrew, without any hesitation or delay.

And he had waited so many days for the other party to make a move, how could he let him escape just like that?

He immediately gave chase.

At the same time.

In another room not far from this residential house.

The other Bounty Hunter, who was constantly monitoring the situation here, noticed the commotion immediately.

“This Night Watch, who refused to reveal his name, has finally made his move!”

His eyes lit up.

He began to pay close attention.

As long as they could find out who this Night Watch was, their mission would be a success.

Immediately, he saw.

The figure who had just charged into the house immediately rushed out again, running at full speed.

Behind him was Luo Fangyi, in hot pursuit.

“This person actually chose to flee?”

This was something he hadn't expected.

Then he discovered that the direction the opponent was fleeing was towards his location.

However, he didn’t think much of it… He was quite confident in his ability to hide.

Ordinary Bounty Hunters were only good at disguise.

But he was not only skilled in disguise, but also proficient in concealment.

He never thought that this Night Watch was coming for him.

It wasn't until… the opponent rushed to his house at an extremely fast speed, that he suddenly realized something was wrong!

Boom!

Xiao Shi slammed heavily into the wall of the house, causing the entire wall to collapse directly. As he smashed through the house wall and rushed into the room, he simultaneously slashed at the Bounty Hunter inside the room with the long saber in his hand.

This completely caught the Bounty Hunter in the room by surprise.

“How did he find me??”

His expression changed drastically.

He had absolutely no idea how he had been exposed!

Facing Xiao Shi’s incoming saber strike, his reaction was also extremely swift.

He immediately moved to block it.

Amidst the roar.

His figure was sent flying backward by Xiao Shi’s saber strike.

And Xiao Shi also stopped, no longer continuing to flee, and glanced at the Bounty Hunter who was pursuing him from behind.

When Luo Fangyi saw that Xiao Shi had actually discovered the other Bounty Hunter, his pupils also constricted.

He immediately understood Xiao Shi’s intention.

This was clearly an attempt to gather both of them Bounty Hunters together, so as to catch them all in one fell swoop!

Damn it!

How did he find out?

Luo Fangyi realized that they had still underestimated this Night Watch.

Neither their disguise nor their concealment seemed to work in front of him.

The other Bounty Hunter’s face was also grim.

Originally, according to their plan, he only needed to hide in the shadows, confirm the opponent's identity, and not make a move.

Even if Luo Fangyi died in battle, as long as he could know the identity of this Night Watch and bring the news back to the organization, it would still be considered a success.

But now… he had no choice but to act with Luo Fangyi.

Either this Night Watch died, or both of them died.

There was no turning back.

Xiao Shi also felt their killing intent from their eyes.

Although attacking both of them simultaneously would carry some risk, Xiao Shi was very confident in the [Swamp Array].

Moreover, from the perspective of pros and cons, this was also the method with the fewest drawbacks.

Thinking of this.

Xiao Shi unhesitatingly took out the formation flag and plunged it into the ground.

Centered on the spot where the formation flag was inserted, a dense marsh gas immediately rose from the ground within a radius of 300 meters.

Enveloping both Bounty Hunters within the range of the formation.

Both of them were startled at the same time.

They immediately found that the ground beneath their feet began to soften.

Not only that.

Xiao Shi also took out a bamboo tube.

The mist released from the bamboo tube instantly spread out.

The marsh gas that had risen from the ground had already made visibility blurry, and now the appearing mist directly obscured their vision, causing them to only be able to see things within half a meter around them.

Everything beyond half a meter was obscured by the mist, and nothing could be seen.

Xiao Shi’s figure immediately disappeared from the eyes of the two Bounty Hunters.
